    Just got done taking this fabulous class. The teacher was professional and the day went by fast because we were busy learning. We did a demo to start the day off. The teacher explained each move explaining to us why she was doing what she was doing. Then we did each others makeup to try the new techniques. Thanks for a great day!

    This is such a convenient way of getting started in the makeup industry. It's extremely fairly and competitively priced, and Danni and the girls are professional and friendly! I learned a lot and I feel great having someone in the industry I can reach out to if needed.

    ************DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY********* Any 5 Star reviews you see were garnered via coaxing, with the gift of a Tiny Make-up Brush. OVERVIEW: Note: Take nothing away from Mr. Rihana (try to get a one on one with him), he was awesome. This "product sale" is disguised as a class where you are introduced to Glam Labs's over priced makeup, cheap brushes, and more opportunities to give up 8+ hours of your life, which will require a few more hundred dollars of your hard earned money. DONT DO IT. Mr. Rihana was instructing the class but the sanctimonious female cosmetologist and Lee added a bit of confusion with their interruptions. Going from one topic to the next without completing an idea was horrible. There was no structure and not all of the topics listed for the class were discussed. Poor! There was never any mention on the web or confirmation email that there was a pass/fail aspect or that you might not get your certificate. Out of the 30 or so girls that were there (5/24/15) only 3 got certificates, about five failed and had to return, and the rest were left empty handed. "We will mail it to you!" Pardon? The false advertising is strong here. They dont deliver what they say they will. The best part of the class was the part when we were parted into pairs and played makeup. So sad. Im feel completely robbed. Refund me please. I will go to a real school next time. I can go on but I will stop here. You will learn more at free events. Email me and I will tell you where you can go. ***************Do Not Waste Your Money**************

    This class was awesome. It's sort of like a boot camp for makeup but don't be fooled, you will learn and retain a lot of good techniques. I would say be sure to bring your kit, a towel, lots of brushes, and plenty of water to drink. It's a busy day but a lot of fun. Definitely worth taking.

    This make up studio is clean and fun with high energy and an excellent attention to details. I feel confident in my skills from everything I learned here and will advance my training here very soon as well. Thanks. Pro Make up and supplies are provided to use and buy. Plus easy parking downtown.

    Instructors!

    I had one of the most unprofessional experiences of my life at this school -- specifically due to…read moreNancy Lopez. I scheduled an appointment to get my hair braided. I arranged childcare and missed work for this appointment. When I arrived, the front desk staff (not the person who booked me) realized there had been no communication about needing to wash and blow-dry my hair before braiding. I explained that Nancy had never informed me of this, and thankfully the front desk kindly honored the original quoted price. After my hair was washed and blow-dried by Christina, we were about to start braiding when Nancy stormed in and abruptly demanded that the service stop until I paid extra for the wash and blow dry. She was loud, rude, and dismissive -- even putting her hand in my face when I tried to explain the miscommunication. She told me not to speak because she was "talking to her student, not me." She then touched my hair and began making discriminatory comments about its length and thickness, saying that it would "cost more" but refusing to give me an exact price. Instead of resolving the issue, she escalated it, argued, and ultimately instructed the student to stop the service entirely. When I asked for her supervisor, she claimed she was the boss and the supervisor, blocking any accountability -- until I insisted and was finally able to speak to the actual administrator, who was kind and understanding. This unnecessary conflict wasted 25 minutes of my appointment, leaving the students pressed for time and forcing my service to be cut down to 2 braids instead of the 4 I had booked. I want to be clear: the students and instructors were professional, kind, and compassionate throughout this. The only problem was Nancy Lopez. Her behavior was unprofessional, hostile, and completely unacceptable in an educational or customer-facing environment. I will be reporting her to the board for her conduct. If you book services here, please know the students are talented and respectful, but the administration -- at least under Nancy Lopez -- is another story.

    My experience here was pretty smooth. The space felt clean and comfortable, and the staff handled…read morethings in a calm, professional way. The service followed a clear process and stayed on track the whole time.

    Tomé un curso de faciales de tres días en Koketa Beauty "Academy" con mucha ilusión y altas…read moreexpectativas, pero lamentablemente mi experiencia --y la de todo mi grupo-- fue muy decepcionante. Quiero empezar diciendo algo importante: la maestra Meli en ningún momento fue grosera, ni levantó la voz, ni tuvo una mala actitud personal. El problema no fue su carácter. El problema fue la falta de organización, preparación, respeto por el tiempo de los alumnos y la muy baja calidad de la enseñanza para lo que este curso cuesta. Durante los tres días se perdió muchísimo tiempo. No se comenzaba puntual, no estaban listos al iniciar, y gran parte del día se iba en tiempos muertos, pláticas irrelevantes y desorganización. Cuando uno paga por capacitación, espera aprovechar cada minuto aprendiendo, no esperando. El contenido fue muy básico y, sinceramente, insuficiente. Nos faltaron muchísimas cosas por aprender. Sentimos que básicamente pagamos por un certificado, no por una preparación real para salir y aplicar tratamientos con seguridad y conocimiento. Lo que más me pareció incorrecto fue lo que ocurrió el tercer día. Muy temprano, antes de terminar el curso y cuando todavía faltaba muchísimo por ver, nos hicieron pasar a tomarnos la foto de "graduación" y a grabar un mensaje hablando sobre nuestra experiencia. En ese momento todavía no habíamos terminado el día, ni habíamos visto todo el contenido pendiente. Se sintió como si quisieran obtener testimonios positivos antes de que nos diéramos cuenta de todo lo que realmente faltaba por aprender. Yo para nada me siento orgullosa de los certificados que compre. Eso fue lo que más me hizo sentir que se estaban aprovechando de nosotros. No fui la única que se sintió así. Todo mi grupo compartió la misma opinión y la misma frustración al final del curso. Este curso no es barato, y por esa razón me siento con la responsabilidad de escribir esta reseña: para que otras personas no inviertan su dinero pensando que saldrán realmente capacitadas, cuando la realidad es que la preparación es muy deficiente. Ojalá esta academia mejore su organización, respete el tiempo de sus alumnos y eleve la calidad del contenido que ofrece, porque actualmente no está a la altura de lo que cobra. Ahorren un poco mas e inviertan en una academia mil veces mejor, yo por ahorrarme unos dólares me fue mal. No lo recomiendo. (La foto adjuntada nos dejaron esperando después del lunch, ya habían pasado como 40 minutos extra)

Andrew Hall, the owner, and operator of The School of Light offered to teach me one-on-one during a weekend workshop to make sure I was fully prepared and confident for the advanced darkroom class. In a weekend, my world changed. I learned the art and mechanics of film photography, sharpened my perspectives for light and shadow, processed my own film, and developed my own prints. Nothing is quite as exciting as watching your photograph come to life, or as empowering as knowing you have full creative control in the darkroom. Low and behold, I was fully equipped for the advanced class - which was nothing short of magnificent. Andrew is incredibly friendly, passionate, patient, engaging, inspiring, a true artist with a wealth of expertise, and an exceptional instructor for your journey into the darkroom. I've since taken numerous classes at SoL and continue to expand my creativity into exotic and uncharted realms. The people who attend Andrew's workshops are just as friendly and likeminded as you. Everyone gets along and encourages each other; it's indeed a splendid place.

More than just a well-equipped darkroom, Andrew's photographic experience is an incredible resource for Los Angeles photographers. Not only that, almost everyone I've met at print nights is equally passionate and excited about the creative process and makes the whole experience outstanding.
